Swabian Gaisburger Marsch
A Swabian classic with leftover Tafelspitz and its broth is of course the Gaisburger March. Traditionally, however, it is prepared with ox meat.

German braised beef roulades
Is there a Sunday dinner that calls home more than beef roulades for a German? We absolutely love them and I always make double the portion so that I can freeze some. So I always have some at home. Sometimes I’m a little “weekend philistine” because I like to stand in the kitchen on Sundays

My first encounter with Rigatoni al Forno was back in the days when I went to the Steigenberger hotel school in Bad Reichenhall, Germany. Sunday evenings we ordered from our trusted Italian restaurant and I just loved the creaminess of the sauce. What exactly are Rigatoni al Forno? Rigatoni are a type of pasta similar
